Actually, amateur radio operators are *licenced* users of the 2.4ghz spectrum that wifi uses. Wifi is a part 15 *unlicenced* user. Operating under part 15 means accepting any/all interference and causing none to licenced users. Hams have known this all along. Wifi users don't ask/don't tell.
That group includes doctors, lawyers, engineers, CPAs, etc. They are held to a legal standard of performance that is higher than a 'non-professional' such as a programmer. Are you ready to pay BIG $$$ for Errors & Omissions insurance, or malpractice insurance?
Programming is a craft. It would make more sense to develop an apprentice system. You start as an apprentice, move to journeyman, craftsman, and eventually master. Then your brain rots and you move to management.

The excerpts clearly fall under 'fair use'. Even the Mighty Bill would have a hard time proving infringement here.
